This is all shades of England in the 1960s really
Here we are driven by Asia (as we must be - we are part of Asia) and the European influence is all via Imports.
We are 23m people and of 356 possible vehicle for purchase here the best seller sold 44000 in the last year - the sums tell the story
Interesting times
Doug, I'm sorry to here that.
Even from afar, it's been interesting learning of the slant GM and Ford do down under. We even had the Ozzy built Pontiac G8 imported here (forget what Holden model it was called in OZ).
I guess that will be the end of the end of the V8 Super Cars Series?
